royal mail side actually quite fast. I bought something from UK, from despatched to reach SG, only 3 days. But hor.. singpost takes like 5! I cannot understand why.

when it arrives in SG, is it immediately updated in d singpost tracking website, or only update on d day of delivery? royal mail says my item is sent to SG already, n singpost website says my item cant b found... hmm...

 

guess ill wait a few more days first...

Singpost cannot be trusted. was tracking my order and it says on delivery from local post and waited 5days and still no sign of my parcel. called them up and they say item is lost and we have made a police report and no compensation from them. After 2 months still no news on if they have made any arrest or not. still in lost of $250 thanks to them.

it should be updated when it arrive in SG after customs clearance..... item should be with them thus they are able to scan and update the website

@Galantspeedz,it was by china post. the sender only will to reimburse me half, which i still think its irresponsible of sing post to wash hands.

@Duckduck, hope u do get your parcel soon.

just to clarify, sender is individual or courier company? if it is a courier company, they would most likely have sought this half payment from singpost and matter is deemed closed.

 

at least that is my experience when doing international shipping with other courier companies... the insurance payout is up to $100 per parcel for mine

The item is "in transit" from UK to SG.

Example, my recent Amazon USA via Vpost : USA shipped on 30/5, "in transit", arrived SG Airport 2/6, arrived SG Post Center 3/6, received home 4/6.
